Just as a matter of interest, how do you know that this is the correct family if you don't have any birth certificates and the children don't appear on any census records with their father please? Which one is your ancestor and do you have that ancestor's marriage certificate please?

Do you know what Rebecca's maiden surname was please?

hi valerie ann
if your sure that its your elizabeth/mary elizabeth rogers knight i can,t seam to find a marriage for your grandfather william knight to rebecca rodgers unless it was mispelt but have search under soundtex & still nothing i think you will maybe have to send for the marriage cert of the knight & madge to confirm fathers details or do you remember anyone mentioning the name madge

Jacky - I am not sure that we actually know Rebecca's maiden surname. We need Valerie to come back and tell us which certificates that she actually has to prove that this is the correct family. If she is working back from a marriage certificate of one of the children, it will only give the father's name and occupation. Rebecca's children do not seem to appear on any census records with their father as they were all under 10 years old in 1861.
